FAQs
Is the dress true to size?
The dress is designed as a body-conscious fit; if you prefer a less restrictive feel, you may want to consider sizing up based on the bandage fabric's compression.
Can this dress be machine washed?
Due to the structured bandage knit and delicate metal hardware, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning only.
Are the pockets functional?
Yes, the hip patch pockets are fully functional and provide storage for small essentials.
What material is the dress made of?
The dress is crafted from a high-quality bandage knit fabric known for its sculpting and supportive properties.
What is the length of the dress?
This is a midi-length dress, typically falling below the knee depending on your height.
Is the fabric heavy?
The bandage knit has significant structure, providing a heavy, high-quality feel that holds its shape well throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping the front due to tight fit
Ensure the dress is pulled completely into place before zipping, or have someone assist you to prevent straining the zipper teeth.
Metallic hardware appearing dull
Gently buff the gold-tone buttons with a clean, dry microfiber cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Fabric snagging on jewelry
Be mindful of wearing sharp or chunky jewelry near the bandage knit; if a thread pulls, use a specialized knit tool to gently tuck it back into the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because of the delicate nature of the bandage knit fabric and the metallic hardware, proper care is essential to ensure the garment lasts. We recommend professional dry cleaning for this dress to preserve the structure of the knit and prevent any damage to the gold-tone button accents. Avoid hanging the dress on thin wire hangers, as this can distort the shoulders; opt for padded or wide-shouldered hangers instead. When storing, keep the front zipper fastened to maintain the shape of the bodice and ensure the contrast piping remains crisp and free from snagging.
